This week I continued to work on my drawings. Especially after our small groups, I realize that I need to pay more attention to certain areas and how I am making marks. There are definitely certain places that the marks that I have made do not work. In my past drawings, I want to identify these areas and on a new piece of paper redraw those to make them more successful as well as redrawing those that are working in the same manner so that the drawing as a whole works better.
I think some of the work on the central figure could be improved.
On this second drawing I like the trees but I am not happy with how the figures came out. I want to work on these so that they will work better.
I also worked on a linoleum block print based on one of my past drawings.

Lauren,
ReplyDeleteI"m not sure if you mean that you're going to redraw the whole drawing or just work on the part that you feel is problematic and make that a drawing. Since I won't be able to see you this week, just make sure to talk to someone else if you feel you need to. In any case, don't put off what we have been talking about - starting a new drawing that takes off from them more abstract collage-like section - you know what I mean. I think that is very promising and I think it will be very profitable for you to more forward to the new places that leads you as well as to rework the other pieces. So don't put that off. Do both.
